Metabolic profiling of the human response to a glucose challenge reveals distinct axes of insulin sensitivity

TLDR
A mass spectrometry‐based strategy to simultaneously measure 191 metabolites following glucose ingestion laid the groundwork for using metabolic profiling to define an individual's ‘insulin response profile’, which could have value in predicting diabetes, its complications, and in guiding therapy.

Large-scale association analysis provides insights into the genetic architecture and pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes

Andrew P. Morris, +232 more
- 01 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of genetic variants on the Metabochip, including 34,840 cases and 114,981 controls, overwhelmingly of European descent, and identified ten previously unreported T2D susceptibility loci, including two showing sex-differentiated association.

TGR5-Mediated Bile Acid Sensing Controls Glucose Homeostasis

TL;DR: It is shown here that TGR5 signaling induces intestinal glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) release, leading to improved liver and pancreatic function and enhanced glucose tolerance in obese mice, and suggested that pharmacological targeting of T GR5 may constitute a promising incretin-based strategy for the treatment of diabesity and associated metabolic disorders.

Bile Acid Metabolism and Signaling

TL;DR: Enterohepatic circulation of bile acids from the liver to intestine and back to the liver plays a central role in nutrient absorption and distribution, and metabolic regulation and homeostasis.

Bile acids induce energy expenditure by promoting intracellular thyroid hormone activation

TL;DR: It is shown that the administration of BAs to mice increases energy expenditure in brown adipose tissue, preventing obesity and resistance to insulin, and indicates that BAs might be able to function beyond the control of BA homeostasis as general metabolic integrators.

Fuel Metabolism in Starvation

TL;DR: Due to its use by brain, D-beta-hydroxybutyric acid not only has permitted man to survive prolonged starvation, but also may have therapeutic potential owing to its greater efficiency in providing cellular energy in ischemic states such as stroke, myocardial insufficiency, neonatal stress, genetic mitochondrial problems, and physical fatigue.
